Over 100 pages of tattoo flash feature Brian Kelly’s innovative cut-up method, which splices and interweaves traditional flash motifs into new and unexpected designs. Inspired by Dadaist literary technique and borrowing from the spirit of collage, these brush-painted and spit-shaded designs are traditional in style and method but wholly original in their combinations and juxtapositions. Traditional images—roses and ships, eagles and daggers, hearts and skulls—become dynamic and surprising, nearly dreamlike, and yet deeply familiar. The collection grew out of Kelly’s MFA thesis, which he continued to refine at The Rose of No Man’s Land tattoo studio in Berlin. This is an excellent inspirational resource for tattoo artists, apprentices, and anyone interested in traditional or neotraditional tattoo style.

You'll love the many championships earned by the Gators. UF's first official football game was played in 1906 but the "lads" had been fooling around on campus with weird shaped oval balls well before then as football was becoming a mature sport in America. It took until 1906 for an official UF team to emerge with its first coach Jack Forsythe and his Minnesota Shift Offense. From here, the book moves you through the Charley Pell era and to the Steve Spurrier days as both a Heisman level player and then a great coach.

We report on all of the thrilling seasons & big games that made a big difference in Pittsburgh Steeler History. The Steelers also have a lot of almost Championships to their credit. The book dips gently into the story about the precursor teams to the Pirates and then the founding of the Pittsburgh Pirates as a new National Football League (NFL) team from Pittsburgh in 1933. The Pirates came into the league the same year as the Eagles. This book actually takes the Steelers fan on a journey from when they had no NFL Championship to today when the Steelers have the most Super Bowl Victories and the best Super Bowl win percentage of any team in the NFL. That is not the whole story. In fact, just since the NFL merger in 1970, Pittsburgh has compiled a regular season record of 444-282-2 (.635) bringing them an overall record of 480-305-2 (.635), including the playoffs, reached the playoffs 30 times, won their division 22 times, played in 16 AFC Championship games and won six of eight Super Bowls. Nobody can beat that record.

This championship book is written for those of us who love Penn State Football. Others can find their missing information from the bookshelves of those PSU fans who have this book. Maybe Despite so may great season records, the last time the PSU Nittany Lions won a national championship was in 1986 and it was against Notre Dame, whose last big national win was in 1988. ND fell hard that year and it was because of the Paterno "Boys" JoePa coached for eight thousand years so he should have had more than just two national championships (50 years of coaching) but somehow, PSU was not as respected as a lot of other teams. Besides the two national championship seasons, JoePa brought in five undefeated and untied seasons which Linos' fans call championships. In 1982, the Nittany Lions were 11-1 and they defeated big back Herschel Walker and Georgia to give Penn State a long-awited NC. Just 3 yrs later, the Nittany Lions came up short in the Orange Bowl v Barry Switzer's Oklahoma Sooners. But the next year, PSU would be back to play for a NC for another big win. John Schaffer got the job done for PSU by the running of DJ Dozier, and the D was better than ever. PSU has always been as good as it gets and still is. The book first tells the story about Penn State's founding in 1855 and it covers a lot of ground in football stories before George Hoskins in 1892, and the great immortal Penn State coaches-Hugo Bezdek, Bob Higgins, Rip Engle, Joe Paterno-and now James Franklin. This book captures the many championship moments in Penn State Football. You won't believe all that is in this book and there is still a lot to say. You will not be able to put this PSU championship book down.

Those who hate ND football will also want this book so they can get a leg up on the missing facts from the bookshelves of ND fans who do not have this book. The book first tells some short but interesting stories about Notre Dame's founding in 1842 and quickly gets to the first football game in 1867. From there, the progression leads, to the Notre Dame's first football game in 1887, then to the first Notre Dame coach in 1894, and of course to the great immortal Notre Dame coaches-- Rockne, Leahy, Parseghian, Devine, and Holtz, to the current season with Coach Brian Kelly. Along the way of course, the Irish picked up their share of championships including as many as thirteen US National Championships. The Irish rightfully claim more national championships than some pundits admit. Notre Dame for example claims an additional three seasons for a total of 11 consensus national championships. The Fighting Irish, however are often credited with thirteen national championships in total. The 1938 and the 1953 seasons are the reason for the discrepancy but for ND fans, it is that good ole lucky Irish number 13 in terms of winning the big ones that the true Irish fans stick by. This book captures all the championships, contested championships, consensus championships, and almost championships. We've got it all. It takes the reader through stories about Notre Dame's 31 coaches to great stories about 130 seasons worth of great games (1285 games). The book often stops in time and talks about a particular player such as Johnny Lujack, Paul Hornung, Tony Rice, Tim Brown, Leon Hart, Johnny Lattner, Brady Quinn, Jerome Bettis, Joe Montana, Joe Theismann, or Ian Book. You cannot get enough of ND greatness but we try in this book because there are a ton of championships, and almost championships and lots of great moments. You will not be able to put this book down
